Number of Pages: 158

Book Summary:
This book provides practical suggestions for how communities can work together to improve the health of their people and their community. Published in conjunction with the Publication Section of Mayo Foundation, the book builds on the successes of the world-renowned Mayo Health System to recommend courses of action for the twenty-first century. This book represents a theme shift from an illness care medical model to a community-based health promotion and disease prevention model with a focus on lifestyle and social issues, e.g. violence, domestic abuse, addictions. Readers will value the insights that health care professionals gained from a ten-year, field-based project. For public/private administrators, academic leaders and health care professionals, and community, policy, and health planners.
